The stud pattern is the same, the only difference is the offset.

It is possible to fit AU - BF Wheels to Pre AU cars via hub adapters, but these are illegal and have been known to fail, causing a wheel to fall off.

Most popular AU - BF wheels are made as copies in Pre Au offset to suit the older cars.

yes you can put AU/B-series rims on an E-series, but you will need spacers, but they are illegal
